MyBB 1.4.8 Released - Maintenance & Security Release
MyBB 1.4.8 is now available on the MyBB website and is a general maintenance and security release.

This release fixes several reported issues with version released since 1.4.6 causing some incorrect functionality of MyBB. These bugs have been fixed to provide a more stable version of MyBB for public use.

What’s added/changed in this version?

One Low XSS Vulnerability fixed in the Archive - This is tagged as low because it requires moderator permissions. This vulnerability was discovered and reported by frostschutz.
One Medium XSS vulnerabilities fixed in Attachments - This vulnerability was reported by frostschutz.
Please note that this patch will remove the ability to open some types of attachments directly in your browser (e.g. PDF), and will instead ask you to download them.
… Several other bug fixes


This release has been tested by our Software Quality Assurance group.

[continued on the MyBB Blog...]

Read and discuss the full MyBB 1.4.8 Released - Maintenance & Security Release announcement on the MyBB Blog.

They seem to be updating security on 1.4 now Tongue

Could be a sign that 1.6 isnt way off.

RE: MyBB 1.4.8 Released - Maintenance & Security Release
im a tad confused the first link has a text file named patches. Is that all 1.4.7 users need to do ? or do we need to download the 1.4.8 changed files zip and run the update script as well ?

You can either do the patches yourself then run the upgrade script or you can use the changed files and then run the upgrade script Big Grin
